Optimization of Starburst99 for Intermediate-Age and Old Stellar Populations
Gerardo A. Vazquez, Claus Leitherer
We have incorporated the latest release of the Padova models into the evolutionary synthesis code Starburst99. The Padova tracks were extended to include the full asymptotic giant…
Metals in the Neutral Interstellar Medium of Starburst Galaxies
A. Aloisi, T. M. Heckman, C. G. Hoopes +3
Thanks to their proximity, local starbursts are perfectly suited for high-resolution and sensitivity multiwavelength observations aimed to test our ideas about star formation, evol…
Modeling the Stellar Spectral Energy Distributions of Star-Forming Galaxies
Claus Leitherer
I will review recent progress in the modeling of the stellar spectral energy distributions of star-forming galaxies. I will cover the full relevant wavelength range from the near-i…
Metals in the Neutral Interstellar Medium of Dwarf Star-Forming Galaxies
A. Aloisi, T. M. Heckman, C. G. Hoopes +3
The determination of the metal abundances in the neutral interstellar medium of dwarf star-forming galaxies is a key step in understanding their physical and chemical evolution. Th…
Age-Dating of Starburst Galaxies
Claus Leitherer
This review covers age-dating methods applied to young stellar populations in starburst galaxies with ages of 10^8 yr and less. First, recent advances in stellar modeling, both for…
The fate of Lyman photons in local Starburst: new ACS/HST images
Daniel Kunth, M. Hayes, G. Ostlin +3
We review the imaging and spectroscopic properties of the Lyman alpha emission in starburst galaxies. The Lyman alpha photons escape is largely driven by kinematical and orientatio…
